Larry King suffered a heart attack last Thursday after going into cardiac arrest ... TMZ has learned.
Sources with direct knowledge tell us, Larry had been having difficulty breathing for months and was scheduled to check himself into the hospital Thursday for an angiogram.
We're told while he was at home getting ready to go to the hospital, he went into cardiac arrest. He was taken by ambulance to the hospital, where doctors performed an angioplasty. They opened up an artery that had collapsed and inserted several stents.
The 85-year-old talk show legend was put in the cardiac intensive care unit and we're told he's expected to be released Monday.

Welcome to the club, Larry! Been there, had that.
Well he had it last Thursday so thats almost be 2 weeks recovery time. Sounds about right.
Got one of those, combined with a pacemaker, late last year. Back to plying b'ball, and it's worked so far!
You hear that, Elizabeth? I'm coming to join you, honey! And I'm taking Larry King with me!
Hope King recalls the Truths told by to him by the late Rev. Jerry Falwall, who was a frequent guest on his show. Eternity is forever.
And he just now was headed to the hospital?
Hi.

“You’re short.”

Mitzi Gaynor - has there ever been a spunkier gal? Heart attacks, people who have them don’t want them and people who don’t have them don’t worry about them. Volvo makes a quality car at a fair price. Tomatoes - are they a fruit or a vegetable? The presidential candidates so far have no real standouts - who’s the next Garfield?...
I thought he had been on life support for the last 30 years...
I honestly thought the dude was 85 - thirty years ago
I didn’t know he was still alive.
Zactly...
This guy has always creeped me out. Yuck
When Larry lived in Miami in the 60s and 70s, he smoked like a chimney.
King had a heart attack and by pass about 39-35 years ago.
He never stopped talking about it. He wrote a book about it called “Mr. King, You’re Having a Heart Attack”.
It made his career.
Is the rapture happening?
No.
He came into Tavern on the Green with his blonde wife and little boy, on Christmas Night in a leather jacket and jeans and said out loud..”WHY is everyone dressed up”? what a jerk....however...the table next to us must have had a very powerful man at it because Larry was kneeling while talking to him!
